Thursday’s Superb Goodwood Cheat Sheet

I believe INTO BATTLE has each-way claims for the gifted Ed Walker and Hollie Doyle. Draw might be higher however I’ll take an opportunity.

In a race filled with improvers, MORTLAKE has a large likelihood to step up over what might be his ultimate distance. He’s been utterly missed available in the market as an each-way choice at an enormous worth.

There is because of be a bit little bit of rain round earlier than racing will get underway on Thursday. On the premise that it’s going to be on the straightforward facet of fine, I’ll go along with MIDNIGHT GUN.

MIDNIGHT GUN was notably robust available in the market when making a profitable begin to his handicap profession at Newmarket in June.

Not unique, however THE STRIKIN VIKING has already achieved greater than most of those, successful properly at York on debut after which chasing house Henri Matisse within the Group 2 Railway Stakes on the Curragh.

TROPICAL STORM is kind of clearly enhancing along with his racing and all of his three tries to date have been over the minimal 5 furlongs.

THE STRIKIN VIKING has been good on his first two runs, and this doesn’t come too rapidly for him. I’d be astonished if he’s overwhelmed.

THE STRIKIN VIKING had created a giant impression at York and enhanced his popularity with out fairly having the ability to fend off one other wonderful prospect when second within the Railway Stakes on the Curragh.

The Strikin Viking has been effectively discovered available in the market, and I like BLACK FORZA at a excessive worth. He’s improved considerably, and represents stable each-way worth.

A poor renewal and JAN BRUEGHEL ought to take this in his stride for Aidan O’Brien and Ryan Moore. The one doubt is quick floor, however he ought to simply be too good.

MEYDAAN was operating pretty effectively when the staff have been woefully off form and so needs to be given some credit score for that. Course kind will stand him in good stead.

JAN BRUEGHEL has solely had two begins, and he’s received each. I’m not too certain there’s anything to return from his rivals. He deserves to be favorite.

BELLUM JUSTUM resumed his progress when third within the Hampton Court docket at Royal Ascot and one other huge run is on the playing cards below ultimate situations.

I can’t oppose JAN BRUEGHEL for Aidan O’Brien and Ryan Moore. His kind is respectable, and he’s crying out for this 1m4f journey. I’ll be stunned if he will get overwhelmed.

EMILY UPJOHN has to provide weight away to the youthful horses like Opera Singer and Elmalka, however I believe she will do this on the again of her monster run below Kieran Shoemark within the Fairly Polly over in Eire.

ELMALKA’s kind to date this 12 months appears to be like rock stable and now that she will get the additional quarter-mile to stretch her legs we may see her proceed to achieve increased up the scores as an each-way choice.

I used to be in opposition to OPERA SINGER and with Porta Fortuna within the Coronation Stakes at Ascot, however this 1m2f journey modifications my thoughts.

OPERA SINGER had 1000 Guineas winner Elmalka behind in fourth when runner-up within the Coronation at Royal Ascot and might open her Group 1 account for the 12 months with the step as much as 1¼m promising to swimsuit.

Going to 1m2f will swimsuit OPERA SINGER, and it’s laborious to go in opposition to her. I used to be stunned by the techniques final day out within the Coronation Stakes at Ascot however she will bounce again.
